Yes it’s Halloween folks and while I haven’t seen any spectres a-haunting, or witches a-cackling, or even a stray zombie a-shuffling, I did get the chance to watch The Big Bang Theory‘s marking of this spooky festival, “The Holographic Excitation”. All the cast members got a chance to strut their Continue Reading

  It might seem odd, even for an ecumenical pop culture-obsessed blogger like myself, to do a joint review of two completely disparate shows. But with both of these wildly different shows reaching the third episodes of their current seasons (for the The Walking Dead, it’s third and for The New Continue Reading

  Yes folks you read that right. Zomney. In a less than subtle dig at the economic and social policies of the Republicans’ anointed candidate for US President, pop culture maestro, Joss Whedon, who has given the world Firefly and The Avengers movie, has nominated Mitt Romney as the man Continue Reading

  Warehouse 13, which screens on the syfy channel in the USA, is a show that I have loved since the first episode. Not all shows, especially ones that had to grow into themselves like Stargate SG1 and Fringe, attract that sort of loyal following from me from the start, Continue Reading

As I documented Continue Reading

  In news that shivers of delight down my spine … bear with … bear with … Tom Ellis, who plays on-again, off-again love interest Gary for the titular Miranda (Miranda Hart) has declared to the world via Twitter that the third series of the hilarious sitcom will see the Continue Reading

  666 Park Avenue is one seriously creepy show. And I mean that in a good way. The supernaturally-inclined drama, which is produced by David Wilcox (and loosely based on a novel of the same name by Gabriella Pierce; I am tempted to read them just to see how “loosely”) Continue Reading

It is almost always a risky proposition dragging out a show from the pop culture vaults and trying to translate it into a concept that will work for modern audiences. For a start, while the show may live on in syndication on say Nick at Nite (ALF, Mork and Mindy, Continue Reading
